5 courses with the subject EDHH, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
EDHH 1000American Sign Language and Deaf Culture I3
A cultural view of deafness instead of a disabilty view is the foundation of this full immersion language course. Basic sign lexicon and syntax structure of American Sign Language (ASL) is the foundation. Each unit focuses on Deaf culture, history, values, social norms and how the language impacts the Deaf community.
This course provides an overview of the many responsibilities, roles, service options and competencies needed to educate children from birth to grade 12 who have a hearing loss. Historical views, foundational concepts and instructional environments are viewed from each level of hearing loss and age/grade range. Professional organizations and journals are introduced to support best research based practices in d/Deaf education.
EDHH 2000American Sign Language and Deaf Culture II3
This course is a continuation of American Sign Language and Deaf Culture I . As such, it will enable students to increase their ASL conversational skills, providing a significantly deeper experience with d/Deaf adults and the community. Course instruction is primarily in ASL with no spoken English. Deaf Community clinic hours are required.
EDHH 3000Language and Literacy for Deaf/Hard of Hearing3
This course provides participants with language and literacy instruction and practice specifically adapted towards the needs of Deaf/Hard of hearing children. Language delays for children with hearing loss lead to extensive delays in reading and writing. Preservice teachers will design opportunities to increase overall language use regardless of modality and create direct literacy instruction aligned with language needs for children birth to grade 12 to be used in various settings. Best practices in literacy instruction and literacy pedagogy and dual language learning theories support a balanced reading and writing curriculum for children with limited auditory access. Literacy and writing curriculums as well as multi-modality strategies for children with hearing loss will also be discussed.
EDHH 4000Strategies and Assessments for Deaf and Hard of Hearing3
Specialized strategies to adapt curriculum, modify instructional materials and assess children with hearing loss in a variety of Birth-Grade 12 settings are practiced. As members of the IEP team, TODs maintain collaborative relationships across disciplines to meet students’ needs. 30 hrs. of direct instruction with deaf/hh learners are required.
